Disobedience is the true foundation of liberty. The obedient must be slaves - Henry David Thoreau

I have a confession to make. I like buying presents. For myself. Especially when I don’t have to wait until Christmas to open them. Does that make me a bad person?

Today was my official kick-off for the Christmas season. Sorry folks, it *doesn’t* start in November. Lumping it up against Thanksgiving makes me feel like we’re just trying to rush past that one to get to the part where presents are involved. Doesn’t work for me! So I kicked off the season with snow, a concert and a viewing of a traditional holiday movie. Well, it’s traditional in *my* house now anyway.
